Our Sixth Form aims to develop the skills necessary to ensure a smooth transition from our school to further education, employment, training and social or health care provision. Most of our Sixth Form students come from our school and may stay for up to three years, depending on their transition plan.

The Sixth Forms core aim is to prepare students for adulthood (Preparation for Adulthood agenda) and this runs throughout the curriculum and individual learner outcomes linked to their Education, Health and Care Plan Annual Review Home-School Agreement targets, ensuring that students reach their full potential. There are two curriculum pathways: Engagement Path and Subject Specific Path. These pathways continue to offer strong emphasis on developing communication and life skills and transferring and applying these in real-life context, where appropriate, pupils’ access nationally recognised qualifications in BTEC Pre-Vocational Skills and Functional Skills English, Maths and ICT. Further information about the Sixth Form curriculum can be found in our Learning to Live Curriculum Policy.
